Public Notice

The Board of Education members will meet for dinner at 6:30 p.m. at the Crowne Plaza Hotel on Wednesday, March 25, 2009. Items for the Board agenda may be discussed informally at that dinner. No votes will be taken, and it is open to the public. The Board president reserves the right to change the times listed on this agenda depending upon the time constraints during the meeting.

*Guidelines for Public Comment

The Board of Education is pleased to receive public comment at each of its regular monthly meetings. In
order to allow the Board sufficient time for its other business, the total time allotted to public comment will
generally be limited to thirty (30) minutes. Individuals seeking to speak to the Board will be allotted three (3)
minutes each.

Those wishing to speak to the Board should contact Dr. Margaret Roberts, Executive Assistant for Board
Relations at (804) 225-2924. Normally, speakers will be scheduled in the order that their requests are
received until the entire allotted time slot has been used. Where issues involving a variety of views are
presented before the Board, the Board reserves the right to allocate the time available so as to ensure that the
Board hears from different points of view on any particular issue.

Speakers are urged to contact Dr. Roberts in advance of the meeting. Because of time limitations, those
persons who have not previously registered to speak prior to the day of the Board meeting cannot be assured
that they will have an opportunity to appear before the Board.

In order to make the limited time available most effective, speakers are urged to provide multiple written
copies of their comments or other material amplifying their views.
